Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

.popup
 
The .popup command specifies that the topic should be displayed in a
temporary window. QuickHelp determines the size of window to use and
displays the text in that window. As soon as the user presses a key or
clicks the mouse, the window is removed.
 
The limit for a .popup topic is 21 lines of text, with each line not
exceeding 76 characters.
 
Example
 
The following is an example of a popup topic:
 
    .context ULONG
    .popup
    \bULONG\p  an unsigned 32 bit value.
 
.category, .context, .freeze, .list, .paste, .ref, .topic
